It was tough to beat Excalibur's prices, but it was also tough to get the funky smell out of our room.
Excalibur is great for those on a tight budget or maybe those who plan to use the room to sleep for a few hours and then head out elsewhere to party.
Decent casino area, nothing really special. The Sportsbook was a little smaller than most, but had comfortable seating. Didn't go in the pool, but from what I can see, it looked a little small, and somewhat basic, except for a cool looking slide. Also has some lower priced dining options.
Of course the rooms are pretty basic, but passable. Popcorn ceilings and worn carpet show its age. But then again, upgrades make the room price go up.
Excalibur may be up your alley if you're really looking for price and must be on the strip.
